Some Of The Benefits

Provides a Foundation

Child’Space lessons provide a foundation for parents to develop intuition and trust their judgment in relating to their babies.

Teaches Parents

Child’Space guides parents in the language of early development, demonstrating how speech, facial expression, touch, movement, rhythm and song can help a baby by stimulating primary developmental pathways.

A Unique Perspective

Learning about activities relevant to their baby’s current development helps parents support the child’s growing abilities.

Empowers Baby & Parents

Child’Space teaches parents how to provide the missing ingredients for babies learning to roll, crawl, sit and stand in a way that empowers both the baby and the parents.

Supports Development

Babies develop better when each problem a baby faces is addressed as it arises. Leaving issues unaddressed for a long period can be hard on babies psychologically, and can lead to patterns of avoidance or compensation.

Develops Independence & Confidence

By knowing when to help and when to let their babies solve problems for themselves, parents encourage their children to develop independence and self confidence.

Enriches Relationships

By facilitating parents’ involvement in their babies’ early learning, Child’Space enriches the relationship, and increases parental confidence.

Body Mapping

Babies’ abilities to balance themselves, to move and even to speak and think can improve dramatically as a result of their being able to feel their own body parts more clearly.
